The basis for SMGW reusability: PPC implements the ‘DoDeleteUserData’ function
Once a smart meter gateway has been installed and commissioned, personal data is recorded. To protect personal data, it has therefore not been possible to reuse such gateways until now. The ‘DoDeleteUserData’ function, which PPC has now implemented, lays the groundwork for reuse and enables a smart meter gateway that has already been commissioned to be reinstalled at a different location.
The EEBUS Ship Pairing Service Explained Simply
To make getting started easier, we’ve created a concise video that clearly explains how the EEBUS Ship Pairing Service works. The focus is on how the commissioning and pairing of devices can be significantly simplified in the future—a key component for scaling the control rollout.
Heating Controls via the Smart Meter Gateway: How Two Infrastructures Come Together
TAF 10 is the function of the smart meter gateway that goes far beyond mere billing and makes the gateway the central component for transparency in the smart grid. It turns the smart meter gateway into a standardized sensor in the distribution network—not just in specific areas, but across the board.
EEBUS for e-mobility: Together with MENNEKES, we celebrated successful interoperability tests at Light + Building.
The eMobility business unit at MENNEKES Elektrotechnik GmbH & Co. KG has successfully completed interoperability testing for EEBUS Limitation of Power Consumption (LPC) with our CLS adapter control.

Digital control meets relays: Weidmüller and PPC launch new solution for control rollout with EEBUS relay converter
At E-world, Weidmüller and PPC are demonstrating the EEBUS Relay Converter (ERC), a solution for control in accordance with Section 14a of the German Energy Industry Act (EnWG) and Section 9 of the German Renewable Energy Sources Act (EEG) at the interface between EEBUS digital and relay analogue. The jointly developed product translates digital EEBUS control signals into analogue relay switching commands. This means that even non-digital systems can be controlled by an SMGWplus in accordance with the requirements of Section 14a EnWG and Section 9 EEG.
GE Vernova and PPC demonstrate successful interoperability for broadband communications in power grids
Cambridge / Mannheim, den 11. März 2025 – GE Vernova und die Power Plus Communications AG (PPC) haben die Interoperabilität ihrer Breitband-Powerline-Technologien (BPL) erfolgreich getestet. Im Fokus der Zusammenarbeit stand die Verbindung des MDS™ Orbit PowerNet von GE Vernova mit dem Smart Meter Gateway von PPC, das die Nessum-Technologie einsetzt.
Long-time partners formalize cooperation: PPC joins EEBus e.V.
After a long successful cooperation in many projects, PPC is now also formally a member of EEBus e.V. The symbiosis between PPC's product portfolio and EEBUS as a protocol for applications upstream and downstream of the grid connection is thus further strengthened.
